Pregnant woman clashes with sentimental mother-in-law after refusing to hang MIL's outdated nursery décor from husband's childhood, sparking tension as she claims they don't match home aesthetic: 'My husband has no recollection of these items'

It is clear as day that this soon-to-be grandmother's intention of decorating her grandchild's nursery is pure. Her daughter-in-law really appreciates her excitement and constant need to be involved. However, she's always envisioned the role of decorating her firstborn's nursery for herself and is unwilling to back down that easily. Especially since all the decorations are sentimental pieces from her husband's childhood, a.k.a completely outdated.

Pregnancy already brings up so many emotions, and we are certain that dealing with the interior design pressure of her MIL is not helping to take the edge off…Long before their pregnancy announcement, she was very familiar with her lack of boundaries, but it seems to be time for her to hear the words 'Maybe with the next one!' However, we must say, her energy and determination are admirable. We love her zest and energy, and even if this grandmother doesn't get to completely redecorate the new baby's bedroom, we can already tell just how lucky this baby will be to have such a present and caring grandmother!

In hopes of keeping the peace and not causing excess stress for this soon-to-be mother, this is a conversation her husband should have with his mother. As parents, they are the ones who should get to make all the baby-related decisions, and when they need help (which we are most certainly sure they will), she should be the first one they ask!
